    Episode 60 - G.I. JOE The Movie (1987)

    The Collective dives headfirst into the animated chaos of G.I. Joe: The Movie! From Cobra-La lore bombs and questionable retcons to glorious 80s animation excess, we break down what works, what absolutely doesn’t, and why this movie still lives rent-free in the minds of a generation. Was Duke’s fate a cop-out? Did Cobra Commander peak here? And is this secretly one of the wildest toy-cartoon movies ever made? YO JOE!

    Episode 59 - Minions (2015)

    In this episode, The Collective goes full banana as we revisit the chaotic, yellow-tinted world of Minions (2015). From the film’s unexpectedly deep lore to its pure slapstick nonsense, we break down why these overall-clad agents of mayhem became a global phenomenon—and whether the movie still holds up today. Spoiler: there were… opinions.

    Episode 58 - Ghost in the Shell (1995)

    This time around the Collective dives deep into the neon-soaked world of Ghost in the Shell. From cybernetic identity crises to the haunting questions of what makes us human, we unpack how this iconic anime reshaped sci-fi and predicted our AI-driven reality. Join us as we debate consciousness uploads, digital souls, and why Major Kusanagi still hits harder than any Hollywood reboot. Plug in, power up, and let’s go full cyberpunk. 💀💾

    Episode 56 - Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008)

    The Collective fires up the holoprojector and takes on Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) — yes, the movie, not the series you actually love. From baby Jabba the Hutt (a.k.a. Stinky) to Anakin suddenly being a dad, we laugh our way through the highs, lows, and “what were they thinking?” moments of this animated detour. Was this the rocky launchpad the galaxy needed, or just a weird footnote in Star Wars history? Grab your lightsaber (or your popcorn) and join us for some Jedi-level banter.

    Episode 55 - Porco Rosso (1992)

    In this episode, the Collective takes to the skies with Studio Ghibli’s airborne antihero in Porco Rosso. Together, they explore the film’s rich blend of whimsy, melancholy, and political undercurrents, unpacking why this story of a cursed pilot pig resonates so deeply. From the elegance of its aerial dogfights to the quiet heartbreak of unspoken love, the Collective dives into what makes Porco Rosso one of Hayao Miyazaki’s most quietly profound works. Is it a kids’ film, a war story, or a poetic meditation on identity? The Collective has thoughts—plenty of them. Tune in for spirited discussion, heartfelt nostalgia, and a healthy dose of sky-bound wonder.
